Radio-Frequency Electronics

3 Hours

Examine modeling of active and passive devices and transmission line structures at high frequencies. Explore analysis and design of radio-frequency electronic circuits including amplifiers, mixers, multipliers, detectors, and oscillators; transistor-, circuit-, and system-level design methods, challenges, and topologies; noise and distortion analysis; and evaluation of modern radio systems. Electrical and Computer Engineering 361R and Electrical Engineering 361R may not both be counted. The equivalent of three lecture hours a week for one semester.
